I've never been one to make a New Years' Resolution...

...but I have been majorly considering quitting booze. I've come to figure out that I really don't like being drunk, and I honestly cannot stand the taste of alcohol sometimes. This is not to say that if I go out to dinner, or something, that I won't have maybe a couple drinks...but I am not trying to revert to being drunk every weekend again, either. I guess thaat I can say what made me come to this conclusion is looking back on the past six months, and realising that pretty much most of the time, I was acting out of character because I was drowning my sorrows in drugs and alcohol. Some things have also happened to make me believe that had I kept going down that same road, I would have no future and also have no ability to think clearly about WHY I was in the situation I was in. I found myself revisiting old habits and I was also beginning to trust the wrong people, once again. I know that my Father would not have wanted to see me become a raging drunk, and allow my life to be plagued with bullshit and dead end stories because of my taste for excess in booze and drugs. I have too many goals I have still yet to achieve, and I cannot bring myself to be motivated enough to accomplish them had I not been able to see that drugs and alcohol were beginning to stick me back down that one way road.

Here's to the New Year, and to a more clean and sober me.

Till Next Time
